How to prefill values in cutomized list form

Hi,
I am using the approach provided in below url.
https://www.nothingbutsharepoint.com/sites/devwiki/articles/pages/trick-use-query-string-values-to-provision-infopath-form.aspx
But somehow the values are not set to the specific field.
Below is my JQuery function
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
var tempValue = "Test";
$("input[Title='Project Type']").val(tempValue );
Why the value is not setting for the control?
Thanks,
dhijit

hi
do you have closing </script> in your code? Also selector $("input[Title='Project Type']") returns all input elemens which have Title attribute set to "Project Type". Are you sure that Title is correct attribute? May be you wanted
to search by id or name attributes?
There may be also several other reasons. The best option is to open developer tools in browser, open Console tab and then reload the page. At the same time add trace logs to your javascript:
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
console.log("1");
$(document).ready(function() {
console.log("2");
var tempValue = "Test";
$("input[Title='Project Type']").val(tempValue);
console.log("3");
</script>
And see will it output all 3 breakpoints to the console. If it won't output one of them then the error in the code is somewhere after breakpoint which was put to the log last time.

How to remove value from pop list in iProcurement Page

I need to remove a value from POP list. How can I do this? Can I do this using Perosnalization?
While creating requisition in the approvers page there are two buttons one is Approvers and another is Add_Attachments.
When I click Add_Attachments button it will open another page there I need enter description and select category from the pop list and define attachment.
In the category list I need to remove one value. How do i do this.Personalization links not available in this page.
Please help guys...
Thanks Advance

Kumar,
First you need to find out the data source for the category pop list. Based on that we can suggest how to achieve that requirement as there are many different ways of specifying the data source for a pop list.

Calculated Value in Infopath List Form only appears when editing.

I have a InfoPath 2010 List Form running against SharePoint 2010 Enterprise. I've created a calculated value that returns data from a secondary list. The returned value is correct but isn't being displayed in the display form. It only appears
when I click Edit. Help!?!

Hi dshupe,
According to your description, my understanding is that you were using a Calculated Value control in InfoPath, and the contorl could not display in the list display form.
I reproduced this issue, and it seem to be impossible to display the control in display form.
For implementing your requirement, you can add a textbox control, and set default value using calculated value(formula) for the textbox control, then set the control read-only. After that, the textbox control can not only work as well as a Calculated
Value control, but also display in display form.
I hope this helps.
Thanks,

How to display different headings in list form using "hide content" in SPD 2010

I built a custom list form in SPD, and applied conditional formatting in some rows
Now I like to display different headings (above the 1st row of the form), based on the same condition:
e.g. when Status=available, display the heading "SIGN OUT" (as the item is available for sign-out)
when Status=on-loan, display the heading "SIGN IN" (as the item can be signed in)
right now I put the two different heading in two lines in the heading space:
SIGN OUT
SIGN IN
I tried following and it works for this part:
select the text SIGN IN
select "create' in "Conditional formatting" pane
select Hide Content
Set: Status=available
click OK
Then the "SIGN IN" text disappeard.
But how can I set another conditional formatting to show only "SIGN IN" when Status=on loan?

Hi,
If you like to show "sign out" when status=available and show "sign in" when status=on-loan.
Please try modify the Conditional Formating rule as below:
Select the text SIGN IN, show content, status not equals available
Select the text SIGN OUT, show content, status not equals on-loan

How to pass value from report to form?

Dear,
I built a report and I create button on report too. This
button will show a form that I want it to automatically show
receivable values from report so that user don't complete them.
So I create a button on the report . I enter Javascript in
PL/SQL Code tab in '...after displaying the footer' as follow :
htp.formOpen
(owa_util.get_owa_service_path||'portal30.wwa_app_module.link?
p_arg_names=_moduleid&p_arg_values=1736929105&p_arg_names=_show_h
eader&p_arg_values=YES&p_arg_names=GNO&p_arg_values=1&p_arg_names
=QNO&p_arg_values=2');
htp.formSubmit(null,'New Answer');
htp.formClose;
GNO , QNO is value which I want to pass
As you can see, the above code can pass only static value.
But I want to pass values that is the condition of this report.
I mean,such as, this report show data that gno=1 and qno=2 and I
want to pass these values to form. So both value will appear in
gno and qno field.
So please tell me what should I do. Please help me. I don't
know how to do it. I look forward to hearing from all of you.
Please!!!!!! Don't hesitate to answer.
Thank you very much

Hi Marc,
Yes, you have it correct in what I am trying to do and if I put a default value in the hidden item on page 2 and run it then that works fine. I just can't get the value from the form passed to page 2 for some reason. There are actually 22 items on the form that can be filtered but just using COREID for simplicity. When I run the form I am just entering a value in the COREID field to try and return those records. Most of the other items on the form are displayed as Popup LOV(fetches first row). Would the values of all these be done the same in a comma delimited list for the items and values? I was trying to get at least one of them working first. Here is the search result that comes up in the debug window:
Search Results
0.01: Item: P2_COREID HIDDEN
0.01: show report
0.02: determine column headings
0.02: parse query as: MOTEAMSAPEX
0.02: binding: ":P2_COREID"="P2_COREID" value=""
0.02: print column headings
0.02: rows loop: 15 row(s)
No data found.
Here is the SQL statement:
select coreid, serialnumber
from MOTEAMS.V_ASSETS where
instr(UPPER("COREID"), UPPER(:P2_COREID)) > 0
The branch settings are:
Set these items: P2_COREID
With these values: &P1_COREID (also tried this with period at the end)
I am new to this and not familiar with apex.oracle.com. How would I go about posting to that site?
Thanks,

How to read value from select list

Hi,
i'm using jdev 10.1.3.1.0, adf, jsp and struts.
i've made a simple viewobject 'bestyrer' (danish for department) and it contains a list of all available department in my organization.
it appears in my jsp page as a dropdown list and when the user chose a specific department all employees in that department are shown as a master detail relationship.
It works and its standard drag'n'drop in JDev.
I need to know which department the user have chosen because the information i show to the user depends on it.
my view look like this:
SELECT KBestyrer.BESTYRER,
KBestyrer.NAVN
FROM K_BESTYRER KBestyrer
bestyrer is a number and navn is the name of the department.
the code generated in my jsp based on drag and drop is:
<html:select property="KBestyrerView"
disabled="${!bindings[\'KBestyrerView\'].updateable}"
onchange="DataForm.submit();">
<html:optionsCollection label="prompt" value="index"
property="KBestyrerView.displayData" />
</html:select>
and the corresponding HTML generated is:
<select name="KBestyrerView" onchange="DataForm.submit();"><option value="0" selected="selected">0 Vejdirektoratet</option>
<option value="1">101 København</option>
<option value="2">147 Frederiksberg</option>
<option value="3">151 Ballerup</option>
<option value="4">153 Brøndby</option>
<option value="5">155 Dragør</option>
<option value="6">157 Gentofte</option>
<option value="7">159 Gladsaxe</option>
<option value="8">161 Glostrup</option>
<option value="9">163 Herlev</option>
<option value="10">165 Albertslund</option>
<option value="104">999 Andet</option></select>
First of all i don't want the indexed values as values of my individual options but the real values as seen in fron of the name. i.e. 101 147 151 and so on.
how do i obtain this and how do i read the value the user have chosen?
hope to receive some help.
thanks
br
kim gabrielsen

Ok,
thanks for the pointer. it clearifies a bit but i cannot make it work.
I've created a second binding as described in the dokument which gives me another binding in the pagedef file:
<attributeValues IterBinding="KBestyrerViewIterator" id="Bestyrer">
<AttrNames>
<Item Value="Bestyrer"/>
</AttrNames>
</attributeValues>
i guess i should be able to reference this binding using 'Bestyrer' as the id.
in my JSP page i insert the following:
<html:select property="KBestyrerView"
disabled="${!bindings[\'KBestyrerView\'].updateable}"
onchange="inspect(this.form)" >
<html:optionsCollection label="prompt" value="#{bindings.Bestyrer.getInputValue()}"
property="KBestyrerView.displayData" />
</html:select>
but it fails with an error:
org.apache.commons.beanutils.NestedNullException: Null property value for '#{bindings' at org.apache.commons.beanutils.PropertyUtilsBean.getNestedProperty(PropertyUtilsBean.java:669) at org.apache.commons.beanutils.PropertyUtilsBean.getProperty(PropertyUtilsBean.java:715) at org.apache.commons.beanutils.PropertyUtils.getProperty(PropertyUtils.java:290)
I've tried #{bindings.Bestyrer} and #{bindings.Bestyrer.inputValue()}
but they fail too.
so there is clearly something i don't understand regarding this binding stuff.
Assuming i get this to work how do i actually accesss the value chosen by the user?
as far as i recall in plain HTML i gave the select list a name like:
name=MyList
and called a javascript function like this:
onchange="inspect(this.form)"
in my JS function i could access the value like this:
function inspect(form){
alert(form.MyList.options[form.MyList.selectedIndex].text)
but when i name the select list i receive an error:
javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: Cannot find bean under name MyList at org.apache.struts.taglib.html.SelectTag.calculateMatchValues(SelectTag.java:301) at org.apache.struts.taglib.html.SelectTag.doStartTag(SelectTag.java:244) at brugeroversigt.jspService(_brugeroversigt.java:75) [brugeroversigt.jsp]
I'm a bit confused here so any input would be appreciated.

How to reset values in a Data Form Bean?

I have created an ADF application that has a search facility in it. The architecture is as follows:
DataPage (search.jsp) --> DataAction (validateSearch) -->DataAction (refreshCollection) --> DataPage (results.jsp)
I have successfully created a data form bean to hold the data that is submitted in the search and bind it to the refresh method of the collection. I have also successfully overridden the validate method, which catches and throws and displays appropriate ActionErrors on the search.jsp page.
I have added a link back to the search.jsp page from the results.jsp page (as a user may wish to perform another search), the ActionErrors are resetting ok but I have not managed to work out how to reset the values of the actual data form bean.
I have tried several different ways of overriding the reset method within the data form bean but so far have been unsuccessful - I would appreciate any assistance with this matter.
Shown here is a basic example of a form bean that I have been trying different things out with - I can not get the reset method to even be called - please help!
package uk.dmf.eg02;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionError;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionErrors;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionForm;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionMapping;
public class searchForm extends ActionForm
String search;
public setupForm()
public ActionErrors validate(ActionMapping mapping, HttpServletRequest request)
ActionErrors errors = new ActionErrors();
if (search.trim().length()==0)
errors.add("search", new ActionError("error.search"));
return errors;
public void reset(ActionMapping mapping, HttpServletRequest request)
System.err.println("EXECUTING RESET METHOD");
this.search = "";
public void setSearch(String search)
this.search = search;
public String getSearch()
return search;

If you run in request scope the reset method is called, however in session scope is't only called once (or never?). See documentation of method reset():
public void reset(ActionMapping mapping,
javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request)
Reset bean properties to their default state, as needed. This method is called before the properties are repopulated by the controller.
The default implementation does nothing. In practice, the only properties that need to be reset are those which represent checkboxes on a session-scoped form. Otherwise, properties can be given initial values where the field is declared.
If the form is stored in session-scope so that values can be collected over multiple requests (a "wizard"), you must be very careful of which properties, if any, are reset. As mentioned, session-scope checkboxes must be reset to false for any page where this property is set. This is because the client does not submit a checkbox value when it is clear (false). If a session-scoped checkbox is not proactively reset, it can never be set to false.
This method is not the appropriate place to initialize form value for an "update" type page (this should be done in a setup Action). You mainly need to worry about setting checkbox values to false; most of the time you can leave this method unimplemented.

How to add values in a List item using code

add_list_element('list34',1, 'Name',:emp.txtname);
where emp is my data block and txtname is a text field on this emp block.
noen of them is working, whether i try adding a string or the value in a text item.

You can do this type of testing in these conditions.

How to Add values to dropdown list in runtime

Hi All
I wanted to add the items to the dropdown list in the plugin.
The SDK Example WriteFishPrice shows the items are hard coded in the .fr file.
i am looking for a similar concept, but not adding the items in the .fr file, i wanted to add the items in the .cpp or .h files and add the items to the dropdownlist.
DECLARE_PMID(kWidgetIDSpace, kWFPDropDownListWidgetID, kWFPPrefix + 2)
The declaration is done in WFPID.h file
#define kWFPDropDownItem_1Key kWFPStringPrefix "kWFPDropDownItem_1Key"
defining the string is done in WFPID.h
I wanted to add the items in the same header file, is there any way that i can add the items in the header files instead of adding in .fr file
Please guide me
Thank you
-Srinivas

Hope this will help you a bit with both threads ; ) I'm not sure what you are trying to accomplish with defining the strings in an header or cpp file and not in the fr file(s). Usually you sort of predefine strings in the main fr file and then give a "final" translation definition for each string in the corrosponding language file. If you don't need or want to translate you can define string constants almost wherever you like and add them at runtime e.g. during dialog initialization. In this case you'd have to make each string not to be translateable with PMString.SetTranslatable(kFalse). If you want to add items to a listbox or text edit during runtime you just have to get the interfaces and call their methods. Below is a small example taken from a dialog with a dropdown listbox, a text edit field and a button widget. In the DialogObserver I implemented the Update function to the following functionality: - when the button (Insert Button) is pressed the content of the edit field is read and inserted into the listbox - when something in the listbox is selected, the selection is shown/inserted into the text field void VSPDialogObserver::Update ( const ClassID& theChange, ISubject* theSubject, const PMIID& protocol, void* changedBy ) { // Call the base class Update function so that default behavior will still occur (OK and Cancel buttons, etc.). CDialogObserver::Update(theChange, theSubject, protocol, changedBy); do { InterfacePtr<IControlView> controlView(theSubject, UseDefaultIID()); ASSERT(controlView); if(!controlView) break; InterfacePtr<IDialogController> dialogCtrl(this, UseDefaultIID()); if (!dialogCtrl) break; InterfacePtr<IPanelControlData> panelControlData(this, UseDefaultIID()); if (!panelControlData) break; //get currently selected/active widget WidgetID theSelectedWidget = controlView->GetWidgetID(); // is it the drop down list? if (theSelectedWidget== kVSPDropDownWidgetID) { TRACE("ListBoxAction"); //insert selected string into edit field PMString strSelection = dialogCtrl->GetTextControlData(kVSPDropDownWidgetID); strSelection.SetTranslatable(kFalse); dialogCtrl->SetTextControlData(kVSPTopEditBoxWidgetID, strSelection); break; } // ist it the text edit field? if (theSelectedWidget == kVSPInsertButtonWidgetID && theChange == kTrueStateMessage) { TRACE("Insert Button pressed"); IControlView* listView = panelControlData->FindWidget(kVSPDropDownWidgetID); InterfacePtr<IStringListControlData> listControlData(listView, UseDefaultIID()); //Insert the string into listbox PMString strText = dialogCtrl->GetTextControlData(kVSPTopEditBoxWidgetID); // obviously there can't be a translation for text entered by user strText.SetTranslatable(kFalse); listControlData->AddString(strText,kVSPTopEditBoxWidgetID); //"clear" the text edit field dialogCtrl->SetTextControlData(kVSPTopEditBoxWidgetID, ""); break; } } while (kFalse); }

How to publish infopath list form changes from one environment to another

How can we move InfoPath customized list form changes from one environment to another example Development environment to UAT environment? We can save that as source file and update url on the .xsn file. But is there any other way we can do it?
Rajasekar A.C

Hi,
You can save the list as template in source environment. Download the template for List Templates, upload in the same location in Destination site. The customized infopath should go with it. Let us know if that doesnt work.

Custom List Form creation using Powershell - SharePoint 2013

Hi,
I have a custom List called 'IssuesList' with 4 fields - "IssueTitle","IssueID","IssueDesc","Status"
While displaying display form I should show 3 fields expect Issue ID i.e. IssueID should be hidden.
and on edit form only Status field should be editable. So using SharePoint designer I created respective Edit form and display forms and changed XSLT to control the display mode on the fields.
I have everything scripted in powershell till now - creation of custom list, publishing pages, webparts etc. however I am looking for how to provision or associate these 2 list forms with IssuesList after I create the list in new site.
I have restrictions on using wsp and site/list template due to business needs. So I need to know if there is any way I can upload these 2 files after I create custom list in powershell and associate them as defaultdisplay and defauteditforms?
Please advise.

Hi,
Per my understanding, you might need to apply these custom forms to a list after list creation using PowerShell.
With PowerShell with SharePoint Object Model, we can hide fields on list forms.
The similar thread below with code snippet will provide more information about this:
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/ee6fc2eb-197f-4144-94fa-8a4e438675d9/hide-a-field-from-edit-form-list?forum=sharepointgeneralprevious
If there may be other requirements except for hiding fields, as you have limitation on using custom solution package(which should be preferable in such scenario),
a workaround I can provide is that, after list creation, you can add Content Editor Web Part contains the CSS style or JavaScript to the form pages of a specific list, it will help you hide/disable the specific elements, this can be achieved programmatically.
The code below can add a Content Editor Web Part to the DisplayForm of a list(though in C#):
public static void AddCEWP()
SPLimitedWebPartManager manager = null;
SPFile file = null;
using (SPSite site = new SPSite("http://sp"))
using (SPWeb web = site.RootWeb)
try
web.AllowUnsafeUpdates = true;
file = web.GetFile(web.Url + "/Lists/List018/DispForm.aspx");
manager = file.GetLimitedWebPartManager(PersonalizationScope.Shared);
ContentEditorWebPart webPart = new ContentEditorWebPart();
XmlDocument xmlDoc = new XmlDocument();
XmlElement xmlElement = xmlDoc.CreateElement("HtmlContent");
//xmlElement.InnerText = "Hello World!";
//write the custom CSS style or JavaScript here
string content = "<style>your custom style here...</style>";
xmlElement.InnerText = content;
webPart.Content = xmlElement;
manager.AddWebPart(webPart, "Top", 0);
manager.SaveChanges(webPart);
web.Update();
catch (Exception ex)
//Utility.SPTraceLogError(ex);
finally
if (manager != null)
manager.Dispose();
web.AllowUnsafeUpdates = false;

How to populate values in List Box in Adobe form

Hi,
How to populate values in List box in adobe forms?
Thanks
RB

if you want to display a fixed values in the dropdown you can use list box ui and can specify values there
or if u want to display values from the context node of the webdynpro
1. Drag and drop a Value Help Drop-down List element from the Web Dynpro Library tab to the Body Pages pane.
2. Drag and drop your node from the Data View tab onto it. This action binds the layout element to the corresponding node.

How do I populate form fields depending on the value of a list box?

Hi,
Can anybody help me out here?
I'm creating a form where I'm needing to populate a number of fields (first name & last name) based on the value of a list box (values are 1,2,3,4,5,6) ie: if 3 is selected 3 sets of the first name and last name fields populate on the page for the user to fill out.
At this stage it is just a prototype site and there is no database running behind it.
Thanks
Hayden

This can only be solved if you have javascript coding skills. Without knowing more about what you want to do and why, I can only show you a skeleton of how your code should look, but consider this form select field -
<select onchange="populateForm()">
When a value is selected from that list, the "onchange" event will fire, and will call the javascript function called populateForm(). You need to define a function by that name somewhere on the page -
<script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[
function populateForm(value) {
 if value >0 { document.getElementById("fieldID").style.display='block' }
 if value >1 { .... }
 etc.
//]]>
</script>
The page itself would need to have ALL the fields already in the form, but with those that are to be revealed set to a style of display:none.
Obviously, this is a skinny skeleton. Each test in the function would reveal a new field on the page by changing its display style from "none" (which is how they should be set in the code) to "block". You would need a separate function for each type of field that might need to be chosen.
If this is well over your head, then I'm afraid you will be out of luck for this particular approach....
